        Yeah, I think it was Matt Walsh that literally made the argument that the government banning porn is wrong and authoritarian but that porn should be banned by all the private companies.

      Weak minded people are easy to exploit

      In other words the people supporting this shit are idiots who have no critical thinking skills.

        Get ready for a full generation of weak minded morons now that the Dept. Of Education is gone. It can always get worse.

          Eh, we’ve had that generation for awhile now.

          Public schooling has never fostered critical thinking skills.* If it did, students would be asking themselves why they have to work so hard while rich kids don’t.

          Public schooling has been best at rewarding people who are willing to take abuse while punishing those who do not. It’s main purpose is to create effective servants for the ruling class.

          It doesn’t need to be this way, but it is and will stay until we decide to change our culture.

          *I’ve had great teachers that have gone above and beyond to get students thinking about the bigger picture, usually history and literature teachers. I’m thankful to have met them and studied under them. It’s sad seeing how their hands are tied when trying to really educate students about the world around them.

          And it will get worse. It’s been getting worse. Orange dick is just an additional progression of it all.
